Hello.
New to the site.
I'm interested in your oppinion and experience with the beds from this two companies. As far as the price goes I know ETS is a bit more, but nicer beds.
Thanks

I would go any direction but that one. JMHO.

I see Tan America in a lot of salons in the area.
Thanks

Because they make a better bed.

How about the helios software?
Thanks

I have it. I like it, but I really have nothing to compare to since it is the only program I've used. About the ETS beds, I didn't mean to sound so negative. It's just that I bought an existing salon w/ETS beds 7 years ago. If I had it to do over again, I would have started fresh with anything but them. That is just my opinion, there are people out there that like there beds. Personally, I think you should do tons of research on several brands, and if possible, go try some of them out. Trying them out is the best way to judge them for yourself.

I tried the SS755 and I really liked it. I also tried the sun up and didn't care for it to much. As far as research, it's hard to beleive the sales rep. I try to talk to people that own them, or have experience with them.
Thanks

What brand of bed would you recomend, that compares in price with this two companies.
Thanks

I know what you mean about sales reps. They remind me of used car salesman. Personally I have always liked any who are hesitant to be critical of other beds I've been looking at. If they spend all their time bashing then I don't tend to trust them much. There are many good companies out there, and depending on what type of beds and how many you plan on getting.....most can end up being real comparable in price. But remember, price is important, but quality should sell you IMO.

Personaly I heard good things about Tan America, and they are local. The only bed i like is the matrix. The only reason I'm looking at other brands is becuase the salon that is near ours has them. I want to give the customers a different look.
Thanks
